    Hiring a forester

    Our NTMP (Non-Industrial Timber Management Plan) $50-70K. His fee would be welcome in Cali. A regular Forest Management Plan is less money but lasts only a few years.

    Fire

    I worked with Alma many times in the past. Every year we had euc fires in the top of the trees where bucket drops were the only way to put out the fire. I remember the last new copter they got, I was on the first training. It was a Huey and the pilot was a former Army pilot in Vietnam. He flew...

    Windfall Whips and Widowmakers, the Hazard's of Working in the Woods.

Appoximately 10:00 a tree fell on the troop pinning and killing one of the scout moms. Her 17 year old...

    I'll have a meeting with my chicken crew again tomorrow regarding upping production. Last time they said no clucking way but they just got new tastier feed so I have a little more bargaining power.

    Charlie don't worry too much about Dave. Hurricane in the desert? Next time it will be raining frogs or the Colorado river will turn blood red. Maybe he will get lost in his "desert" for 40 days.

    Yep. Those 8 years in the Marines required that he attend the Ball and that conflicted with our GTG.

    set chain with punch instead of spinner?

    I like the Granberg tool and use it mostly clamped in my bench vice. There is a second one in the truck tool box however I generally use a ball pein hammer and pintle hook ar trailer ball as an anvil. The results are always good. Tappy-tap.

    Massive downpours and debris flows last night had fire crews abandoning their vehicles and running for their lives uphill on the McKinney fire in Siskiyou county. Heavy equipment is working their way in to try and extricate fire vehicles.

    D starter handle

    The d-handle grips work very well especially with bulky gloves, just a bit large. Regarding those after market elastic pull ropes I found them to be absolute garbage, some lasted just a few days. I only buy Stihl now.

    Just how much quicker does full chisel dull in dirty wood?!

    Chipper chain and semi-chisel chain are two different animals. Chipper was discontinued in handheld chainsaw in the 1970s and was replaced by semi-chisel. Chipper was extremly slow and put much more strain on the saw than semi. I think most people have never seen chipper chain.
